Calling all old duelers!

Onyx · Post by **Onyx** » Fri Jul 30, 2004 1:55 am

Been around a while...maybe since the beginning? Got any logs of the duels? Post em!

I've been around for about ten years...give or take dead computers, exboyfriends...etc, when I was away for a little while. Alas all old logs I had from the early Power Tools days are gone. I was wondering if anyone still had theirs. Date and time stamp are a plus. It'd be a great read, not to mention adding to the histories.

It's late, I'm bored, and it was an idea.

I'm older than most, newer than some. I want to say that I first discovered the Red Dragon Inn and Duel of Swords (under a different name, of course

around January or February of 1993, so that puts me a little over 11 years.

Falon was Overlord, only the 3rd, loveable little Gloin was still tending bar and calling duels, the never-to-be-rivalled British was calling challenge matches and our very own Xenograg was a fairly new Warlord

Sadly, I don't have any logs...I have long since lost all the old material I once had from that era. But I agree, anyone who has old stuff would be a huge hit!

I think I've got some of my older logs rattling around on a zip-disk... The oldest I'd have would be from around the middle of Dalamar's big reign though.

Karen, whatever you have would be great.

I'm just trying to see who has what. That old and new duelers alike would enjoy. The histories are great, but old duel logs are the best example of a Arena/Outback/Isle time capsule.

I have logs of all folders. I once asked Tosca and several other players to allow me to use them for a new site, but never got around to do it. Maybe I should pick up that old project. It is called "The Lost Scrolls"

I have logged everything since my first day in the RDI/DoS, and kept the good stuff. Unfortunately, I had a major data corruption event back in 1997 which lost me almost everything before then. I cannot even prove what my WoL record was when I retired.

Speaking of Xeno's retirement:

I, unfortunately, haven't kept anything over the years either. I know some people can still get in touch with Jona's player. She'd be my bet on who would have a nice chunk of saved logs still floating around.

However, I'm working on archiving (under the History section) the old DoS message boards. It's a slow painful process. I'm up to Oct. of '98 and I suggest you all check it out if you're ever bored. There's also a nifty "search" feature that can help sort through them.

Before I retired from the job of Standings Keeper, I had kept a list of every dueler's records (that I could verify through study of the Standings) at the point they retired. I'm reasonably sure I still have that document, since I dislike just throwing things out.

I'm also reasonably sure I have all the known saved copies of the Standings... and I remember giving copies to a few other people.

I was also a DoS Standings Keeper (until I got fired by Kairee). All of those records were lost in my data corruption. Yes, I said fired!

Thank you for the archive link, Rory. :: remembers the retirement party with fondness ::

Did someone say old? I thought I heard the word old and hobbled over to check.....

The boots are quite fashionably too.
